Our classroom has one key principle, respect.  If you respect yourself, you will do your best work, arrive on time, and dress according to the UPP dress code.  If you are being respectful to the teacher, you will listen attentively and participate in class.  If you are being respectful to each other, then you will not interfere with another student’s learning; you will contribute to the learning of your peers.  If you respect your school, you will follow all school rules.  If you respect your community and the world, you will seek to give your time and talent to benefit others.

Student Honor Code

Plagiarism is using another person’s thoughts, writing, or ideas as your own.  It includes using another student’s paper, information taken directly from the Internet, or information copied from books.  Plagiarism in any form will not be accepted. Students who cheat or plagiarize will receive a ZERO.

**I will show you how to correctly use quotes in your writing (Research Based Writing), so you will not feel the need to plagiarize.
